The best weapon against high tech digital AF idiots is a short stack of 11x14's
in a box. (no maple syrup)
This will prove to them that we are actually in our old age capable of focusing
a camera lens and enlarger lens and putting two LED's in the middle and pulling
out a stinky print! A short stack of prints is a necessary photographic tool
like spare batteries, model releases, a lens hood. They WILL respect the results
of Leica optics! They WILL have severe doubts about the Manliness/womanliness of
their stinkin CPU's. Phooey I say to that!!!! :)
